When will people learn that the current definition of ‘far right’ costs far too much to outweigh any claim of solutions. The west is proving that now, that ‘right’ only means destruction of anything good.

Britney Schmidt must have completely ignored all the other results of Arctic surveys over the past thirty years, because this is perfectly in line with the other findings.
- Comment on Racism. Nationalism. Patriotism. All must die. 1 week ago:
I miss when I could be ignorant, or oblivious to widespread issues. Some people focus on their own lives because caring for others is too much to handle, and some people regress to a younger mental state, or ‘little’ mode to escape their present, and I don’t blame them.
Hoarding biscuits and cookies in my room and eating some after school, while watching glitchy Freeview channels on the ~12inch CRT at the end of my bed, via a cheap indoor aerial. CBBC if I was lucky.
- Comment on credit bureaus are fucking nonsense 1 week ago:
I tried keeping a lower credit score by making deals with demons and acquiring credit cards. The reason is I’ve heard having a higher score improves interest and mortgage rates for a home. Problem is, in my area at least, my credit only affects my score if I exceed £15,001 cumulative limit, and if I consistently use between 25% and 50% of said limit, constantly having loans of £3,750-£7,500. Being unemployed and finding it VERY hard to accept the prospect of corporate servitude, I will never have £15,000 in credit availability. Thus, I accepted that anything credit score is all bullshit and not even feasible.

Does this mean that being willing to eradicate people for the greater good of humanity (far left) is not the same as being willing to eradicate people for the greater good of a secular minority (far right)?

Yeah, my partner trusts the Independent to be pretty balanced, and while she may be correct I have seen the same sensationalist styles in their articles

- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 2 weeks ago:
How about some FACTS BITCH
In 2022 in the USA, there were 285 million registered vehicles. Also in 2022 there were 5,930,496 reported crashes, resulting in one crash for every 48 vehicles in 2022.
In the 7 YEARS between 2015 and 2022 Tesla has delivered 2.6 million cars with Autopilot capability. In the 6 YEARS between 2018 and 2024 there were 956 reviewed crashes, resulting in one crash for every 2,720 Teslas in that period. Tesla is FIFTY SIX TIMES SAFER than humans in the USA alone
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 2 weeks ago:
I agree that ads can help people be aware of a product’s existence, but I believe, especially at this stage when I am tired of being spoonfed, that a more organic way is preferable. For example - forums, product reviews (REAL ones ofc), product storefronts including online marketplaces…
When someone needs something, they can go looking for it. A door that grates on a frame for example, may be talked about on a forum, which discusses the products others have found to help. In this case a mouse(shaped) sander. The person can then follow breadcrumbs to the most convenient store that sells it.
This is actually the way I find most things I need. The vast majority of products shown to me, passively on various items in the streets or in video format, are useless to me. I first learned about VPNs when I looked for a solution to a website article having an error page stating that it cannot be viewed in my country.

This is a road that leads to a Book of Law that surpasses the lifespan of generations of people, but we have one and it’s partially broken 😔
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 3 weeks ago:
Here’s the thing. The reason ads are bad is because almost every single one is for a product that will exploit the user. Mullvad is a product that does the opposite. They ask for money, but don’t force it. They intend to give power of the user’s life back to the user. Thus, some ads are actually okay. Ads about VPNs, self hosted systems, anti-corporate anticapitalist services, software that is for you to use and only ever takes telemetry for software improvement, and then only if you consent first.
Hell, before this garbage, on TV the only ads were products and charities, and everybody grew really sick of the African child ads because its sole purpose was to exploit the viewer’s empathy and get their money. Same with now, except if it’s not money they want it’s data, and data is money to them.

Being a hateful and harmful individual, damaging society - the correct society - is a choice and one you don’t have to make.
- Comment on UK’s largest Jewish group punishes members who broke silence on Gaza genocide 3 weeks ago:
Except from that one time that one guy deemed that every demographic he disliked was damaging society by their existence and deserving of not only banishment, but horrific death.
Banishing and rejecting certain people must be accepted, in order to reduce the harm they cause. Genocide supporters, anti-BIPOC and anti-LGBTQIAA+ radicals, anti-women podcasters, tyrannical leaders of their local civilisations. Jail might work, but a complete reform of what is deemed criminal is also needed. The current English-speaking governments are not modern enough.
- Comment on Man on my word 4 weeks ago:
I believe in a free internet. In this case children are far more at risk of life-alterating trauma from their personal surroundings than anything they could see on the internet with themes relating to content intended for mature audiences. References to porn are much tamer than references to sexual assault and murder, looking at you YouTube. Here’s a link
